So... let’s keep hoping for more bad seasons so that no one takes our manager?
So confused right now

We're spot no. 5

We aren't spot #5...the numbers are the actual place in the table, so that's Man Utd, heh. We're spot #15: poor defense/ruthless opponents, marginally above-average creativity/attack overall.
We've been xG darlings for some time, but the pattern is consistent enough that it likely has something to do with our ability to generate chances that we don't finish, and the tendency of our defense to melt down spectacularly. Ings has helped on the chance conversion front, but we still fluff our lines to an extent unrivaled in the league. By xG/xGA, the second most "unlucky" (or least composed, depending on how you view it) team is Chelsea, whose goal differential is about 9.1 goals worse than their expected goal differential. Ours is 14.6 goals worse.

Wow, who on here has never made a joke that would be considered in bad taste by others?
Rather harsh treatment given the lack of response in football to the ongoing racism issues.
That's why I posted it, it seems his employers and the media(namely the sun) really gave the guy a really hard time with a false story without him putting his side over.....and as you say who hasn't honestly made a joke considered in bad taste?
But I liked his point that he got sacked and yet our PM can make letter box jokes etc and no one bats an eyelid.
Poor guy, his whole life ruined for one momentary lapse of common sense. Thanks for posting that Richie, a very sad tale.
